Saranhai is right. It sounds like a kernel issue. If you give us more info we can recommend kernels that you can flash.

sorry guys
rooted? yes
s off? yes

Ok. MIUI is an alteration of AOSP. So, an AOSP compatible kernel is what you would want. However, LanternsLight puts out good MIUI ROMs. Unless its a known issue, I doubt its the ROM. Did you format your system partition before flashing?
Edit: Just spent a few minutes reading through the thread. No one else has reported this as far as I can tell. If you didn't format /system before you flashed, reflash using the instructions in the OP of the thread in the dev section. If you did, wipe cache and dalvik cache and reflash. If neither of those works, try TDJ's AOSP kernel, but there is nothing wrong with the Tiamat kernel, so I doubt that's it.

OK update i dont have any idea why this isnt working but i cleared the sd card,ran the rom install again followed the directions completely and my hotspot and wifi will bootloop my phone im at a loss of swear words already. should i take a hammer to it or not

Did you try a fresh download?

yes as stated i completely cleaned the sd card and redownloaded multiple roms and none will allow me to use wifi or hotspot the hotspot will error and the wifi will bootloop every single time

What Roms did you try?

what you can find in the recent rom section i tried i think it has to do with the phone or something im lost im frustrated im gonna flip out and smash this phone soon

Well, if you'be tried multiple ROMs with different kernels and did FULL wipes between them all, its probably hardware. I can't think of anything else it would be.

well all i did was change sd cards and thats it no more wifi and hotspot.....should i partition the sdcard i do remember seeing that in recovery does that affect the wifi n hotspot? if so what should it be partitioned at

Eeerm, partitioning the sd card is for moving apps over to external storage the pre-froyo way. It has nothing to do with hotspot functions. So your hotspot worked before, but crapped out when you changed as cards? That's really weird...
Does anyone else have any insight into this, because I'm at a loss?

Anyone out there?????? ANYONE

Try flashing the stock 2.2.1 or 2.3.4 rooted. Try if that works. If not, I too am at a loss. Maybe Jack_R1 is around lol

have you tried flashing the froyo pd15img to unroot and see if the problem persists? if not then i would do so and then report back... if the problem is still there then it seems to be a hw problem... if it is gone then it will be easy to reroot and be back in the game! just a little fyi though, if you want help then next time i would recommend providing us all the information! bootloader version, root method, rom, kernel, etc, etc, etc... you will more than likely get a more informed response and it shows that you actually put forth a bit of effort in helping us help you, rather than being the guy in my signature video! and as for your comment of this is the last day you are going to try to fix the phone, well it is your money that was spent on it, so by all means nuke the damn thing! but dont get angry cause we cant fix your device, we did nothing to it or you... take it to the store and let them mess with it or pay the deductible and get a new one... good luck on any note!

Nexus4, sudden signal loss

Good evening, I'm having issues with my nexus .
Days ago a friend of mine told me about the Xenon HD rom, and I decided to try it (Im a CM user).
Today, I made a backup with TWRP and flashed the rom, I tested it for a few hours and I did not liked it, so I decided to go back to the previous rom, so I restored the backup. I realized that all my applications were not installed, so then I decided to do a Factory Reset and restore the backup again, my apps were still missing.
So I decided and start from scratch, doing another factory reset and installing CM on it, I factory reset it and I realize that my phone did not have any signal!
Wifi and everything is working but iit is not receiving any signal!
Can anyone help? I even tested it with a simcard from another company and nothing!
Are there any settings that may have been moved? Some option? please help me!

If you already flashed the factory image
Just let it be, insert your sim card and let the phone on for awhile
That happened to me with PA in 4.2.2 you got to wait a bit

I dont think this will help that much, Its like waiting for it to fix itself, Thanks pal
At this point, my phone is fully stock and ready to go to the US for a claim process...
I just want to make sure everything is as stock as it should be, please take a look at the following and let me know:
Bootloader
Recovery
Anything else should be done? do you think that google will find out that the phone was rooted or something?

Good day, I just wanted to let you guys know that the weirdest thing just happened to me.
I just came from my office and thought about going and turning on my phone, I did, and enabled airplane mode, (also turned on and off nfc) when I disabled it, my phone detected the network signal! I even received a sms, I also made a call! and thought, wow! it fixed itself up! I was literally dancing in my room and changing my simcard... (because I did all the above with a replacement chip that I have) and when I finally put my chip back, I made a call and it lost the signal again... It is now again without signal... I’m beginning to think this is a hardware problem...

Any update on this?
I've had the same problem for a few weeks now, the 3G/H signal just drops out, rebooting, airplane mode switching, returning to stock, different apn's, changing radios, replacing sims have all had no effect.
It's getting embarrassing now, seems to be such a common problem and yet no acknowledgement from Google about the issue which I believe to be deep in the settings/software and relating to the hardware in the original batch of Nexus phones.
I could arrange a return and get a replacement but I've read that even replacements have the same issue.
Apart from throwing the thing against the wall is there any other fixes out there?
If it helps I'm on 02 UK pay monthly, surrounded by cell towers, the phone is rooted and running stock 4.3
Just checking it now and I have H and 4 full blue bars - Ok update twitter.. nope, ok go to the play store..nope...

idk about AT&T, but with a D80x, you'd just need to flash the proper KDZ using the LG Flashtool.

This request does not compute! !!!
Sent from my LG-D801 using Tapatalk

Yeah there is an easy way to go back. Go to this thread by @SuperSport http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2663369 and download one of the JB installers. No root needed and it won't root your phone. I've used his installers to upgrade to KK and back to JB and it worked fine for me. Make sure to backup anything you want to keep because it will wipe all of your files.

thanks guys... that worked!

Hey guys I have this exact same issue (trying to go from the 4.4.2 back to 4.2.2) Except I'm on the Tmobile version of the G2 (D801 I believe). Any hope for me? I looked at that thread and those all seem to be AT&T versions.
Oh and I did that upgrade with no previous root or unlock or anything, bought from the store, and went right to 4.4.2 with the LG tool. now I wanna get back so i can root it.

Many thanks I've searched all over for that!

Just curious, what bugs or annoyance do you guys have with the new stock KK? I've been on it for the past day or so and find it extremely smooth (did factory reset after flashing and started everything over).

mine was that I use yahoo IM a lot. It is probably more of a yahoo issue than KK, but I lost my LED light for yahoo. Other than that, it seemed exactly the same as 4.2.2 did except added a couple of apps...
FWIT: I did this procedure, it worked like a champ... worked extremely well... but if ya do it, might consider removing the SIM card. It like erased my SIM... I don't know why it would... but it didn't work after that. Had to go to ATT and get it reset. Didn't cost anything, just a minor nuisance. Over all, I would do it again!
Thanks!

I always do a factory reset after a big system update because I've found that you tend to get bugs and things after the update. The reset usually cures it.

GPS not Fixing

Hi guys! I have a SM-G900F and my GPS won't work. I was running Sixperience V7 (GPS was working) ,then wiped and installed cm12.1,but gps wouldn't work so I cleaned my phone by Reinstalling stock BOI3 ITV with Odin. I have tried all the options (GPS Only,Low Power,GPS+Network positions) But it just won't lock,doesn't even search for satellites. Is there something I can do to get it back working? Thanks!

Happened exactly the same to me.... I came back from cm12 to do the GPS fix thing in touchwiz but now it won't even search satellites or get a lock what the hell!! And I'm pretty sure it's not a GPS problem since it was working just before I had cm12.1... Any help appreciated

I tried and now it works,But only on sixperience 7.0 like you! I don't know why it does not work on other ROMS,we must wait for someone who can explain. I have tried stock by using Odin,cm12.1,xstrolite ecc. but without results. Only Six7 works

i had the same problem. try to flash sixperience again, get gps lock and don't turn it off. flash stock again..this worked for me....

Found the fix! go back to sixperience 7.0, get the lock, then download stock from Alexander or something , go to TWRP, ONLY Clean SYSTEM AND DATA, Only those two, flash stock rom and it works! Now we get gps on stock, try it mate!

Is it possible to fix GPS by just flashing Six7, then wipe, then flash CM12.1?

I think I have had a bad day. I used Odin to flash the stock ROM, the process was successful. But after booting, I had non stop FC messages at welcome screen. Tried other firmware, the issue still persist. I dont know what went wrong then. Now I'm only able to use CM12.1 without fc but obviously GPS doesn't work.

Has anybody still got the v7 file I can't find it anymore All the links have been removed

Captainblade : you can find links to v7 on German site android-hilfe.de just google it.

I had exactly the same issue and thought I fried my GPS as no rom would work. I was researching about the CSC in my phone as restoring to stock would bring another carrier's apps. I used the Phone Info Samsung app on Touchwiz and ever since all roms have worked for GPS. I am thinking either my CSC got corrupted or even my EFS partition

Same problem here Any news on how to fix GPS after Sixexperience V7.
Thanks

I found a *****en ROM named Nameless in the f/g variants of the Note 4. Was all psyched to flash it and play with it only to realize there's data issues. Is there any body who knows how to fix the data issue or maybe properly port this to our device?

T_T I'm not sure of what to search for. For branded roms it's relatively easy, but as an INT'L ROM I'm not sure if my process would work. So it's just some obscure file? I was thinking it may be because I flashed something wrong. No chance you can remember where you think you may have seen it? Like xda or another site?

I have been trying my hardest, asking on every forum i can find, to find out how to get the beta release of emotion kernel R24 for N910T. Not one single response.....but anyway. It is my understanding that the latest release of Emotion Revolution rom has r24 kernel as an option in aroma. My question is this; would it be possible to unzip the R23 kernel zip for N910T and replace only the R24 boot image from the emotion rom and leave all the other system files. Or would that be a really bad idea? Ha. I just want the kernel on Tekhds URv7. I know this is possible a really stupid question but I'm just now beginning to learn all the technical details of these things. And I will say ahead of time that any answer will be beneficial because I don't know much about how a N910T kernel differs from international as far as data is concerned or what the fix actually fixes when you flash it. But if it has any relwvance my phone is carrier unlocked and i dont even use tmobile. My goal is to learn something new everyday without hard bricking my baby like I did my N900A. I'm not by any means new to rooting but am very new to having a device that I can actually play with. Thanks in advance and us noobies appreciate everybodys patience.
